Chapter 1476 The Mysteries of Balloon Space
"What's at the end of the void? Is this what you found at the end of the void?" Negris asked curiously, looking at the things that Hildi and Leonir unloaded from the interdimensional airship.
Hilde said excitedly, "Yes, it was found at the end of the void. At the end of the void there is a wall, a wall that has no end when you look left or right, and no end when you look up or down. These things fell off the wall and are very hard."
As she spoke, Hilde casually picked up a stick and shoved it into the ground with force; the stick pierced the ground with ease.
Everyone stared wide-eyed. This was on the leaf of the Tree of Myriad Realms. The ground was made of the leaf of the Tree of Myriad Realms, which was several times harder than the hardest metal that could be found on the plane. How could something that looked so ordinary have pierced through it?
Considering that Hilde is a mage who is powerless against a tiger, this further demonstrates the hardness and sharpness of this substance.
Duroken took it and immediately said, "So light."
In the Prime Material Plane, there is a very light type of wood called balsa wood. A large wooden stake, three meters long and one meter thick, can be carried by an adult. This material is even lighter than balsa wood.
“It’s irregular; each piece is different. Some are strips, some are flakes, and some are chunks, as if they’ve naturally fallen off from some object,” Duroken said.
"Is there really a wall that you can't see the end of in any direction?" Negris asked curiously.
“It really is there! Our airship flew up and to the left for months, but we still couldn’t see the end of it,” Hilde said excitedly.
After a pause, she added, "But Leonir said it's a spatial illusion, and the wall isn't as big as it appears."
“Spatial illusion? Leonir, what do you mean?” Negris asked.
Leonir floated over and said, "My dimensional traversal airship, after calibrating through the dimensional wall, discovered that the distance we've traveled is longer than the distance of the dimensional wall itself. In other words, we've been traveling along the wall for months, but after the dimensional traversal airship was calibrated, we may have only traveled a fraction of the distance."
"What do you mean? The travel distance outside the void is longer than inside the dimensional wall? What would happen if you entered the dimensional wall and then traveled there?" Ursman understood immediately and then asked.
The others didn't understand at first, but after hearing Ulsman's question, they began to realize.
Leonier said, "The dimensional walls there are gone... not gone, but very thin, because there are no dimensional spaces there anymore. The dimensional barriers have become like the surface of water, with only a layer of tension."
Ulsman nodded thoughtfully and asked, "What do you think caused this phenomenon?"
“This boundary can be much smaller than we imagine, creating a spatial illusion,” Leonil said.
Ulsman nodded and said nothing more.
Negris was displeased: "Why are you nodding? Did you understand? Explain it to us now, what are you doing just nodding?"
"Uh, that's what I mean, didn't you guys understand?" Ulsman asked in surprise.
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
Ulsman scratched his head in a bit of a daze, looking somewhat like Ang, clearly unsure how to explain something so obvious. After a while, he finally said, "It's a balloon."
As she spoke, she opened her palm, conjuring the image of a balloon, and said, "Its surface area is only this big. If we treat air as space and blow it in, does it become bigger?"
Ulsmann then conjured up another inflated balloon, which increased in size several hundred times.
"The space inside is hundreds of times larger than the balloon, but in reality, the balloon's surface area is still only that big. The space won't expand the balloon; it will compress and expand."
"In such a small balloon, there is enough space to be tens of times, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of times larger. We would not feel anything living inside because there are no reference points. But when we reach the boundary, where there are walls and reference points, we will discover this spatial illusion."
Leonil slapped his thigh and then clapped his hands vigorously: "The explanation is so thorough! That's it! That's it! I couldn't figure out this principle at all. As soon as you explained it, I understood. This balloon theory is so profound. I will treat it as a profound truth and engrave it in my Wheel of Time."
Leonir's divine essence is the Wheel of Time, and his divine skill is Time Reversal. Relying on this useless divine skill that can only be viewed but not modified, Leonir managed to restore part of the Wheel of Time's functions.
The Wheel of Time is the mark of the Ancient Dragon of Time. Although Leonir only restored a part of it, it was enough to exhaust him to death. He died from the depletion of his divine power.
After being resurrected by Ang, he was finally spared the drain of the Wheel of Time, because Ang possessed the power of the Time Dragon, in its complete form.
However, even though he no longer had any worries about divine power, he did not stop working on completing the Wheel of Time, because this 'Wheel of Time Modified' was restored by him. In the process of restoration, he added a lot of his own understanding, making it a power that truly belonged to him.
Now, he has a new understanding of space and time, and he wants to add this balloon theory as an ultimate principle to his "Wheel of Time - Modified".
Seeing Leo Neal excitedly slapping his thigh, the others looked bewildered: "What balloon theory? What does that mean? Doesn't a balloon get bigger when it's inflated? If the space gets bigger, the wall gets bigger too."
“The space increases, but the walls don’t need to increase, because without a reference point, space is just a perception, or even something you perceive through time, such as a two-hour journey or a one-day journey. These are all time, not space.” Hilde seemed to understand and helped explain to everyone.
Negris and Anthony exchanged glances and decided to skip the topic, since they couldn't understand it anyway. Anthony then said, "Leonard, have the master back up his memories, and then take the relocation airship with me to the Silent Dead Sea."
"You want to get close to the core of the abyss by crossing the dimensional barrier? Is that possible? Won't you be discovered?" Negris asked.
“I don’t know, but we should take the risk and try. Anyway, when I approached the old star with the relocation airship last time, it didn’t detect me,” Anthony said.
“At that time, the old star had changed its form, and you can’t use the old star’s strength to measure other gods; it was the weakest,” Negris said.
"It doesn't matter. At worst, I'll just die. With the adults around, I can be resurrected anytime." Anthony waved his hand dismissively, boarded the relocation airship, and headed towards the Silent Dead Sea.
The King of Felix is in the void, and we can't get close. It seems that Anthony is preparing to bypass the King of Felix by crossing the dimensional barrier. Even if he is discovered by Gmezburg, at least it can verify that the Destruction Ball has failed to drive away the opponent.
